When SSDs came out I avoided them out of reliability concerns, but figured the endurance would improve over time as the tech matured. But it turns out the reality is that endurance has plummeted: SLC: 100K cycles MLC: 10K cycles TLC: 3K cycles QLC: 1K cycles https://www.kingston.com/en/blog/pc-performance/difference-b... Now SSDs seem to be taking over the laptop world and HDDs are getting harder to find (and smaller, as the larger CMR drives get replaced with garbage SMR models). It seems like reliable storage in a laptop is quickly becoming a thing of the past. |
